not entirely sure, i know you def need fertile cervical mucus to get pregnant but do you know you've def not got any? not sure how you'd tell for definate! lol i can see this being a big TMI thread!if you're worried about it you could try pree-seed or taking cough medcinexxx

The EWCM is the dissolving of the plug that normally blocks your cervix, so I think perhaps not. But on the other hand you may have EWCM and not know. It might all come out (sorry tmi!) when you go to the loo and you might not see it. Some people don't get much.Re: the cough medicine, make sure it's an expectorant not a decongestant one!

Thanks for the tips!TMI ALERT!!!I have got CM but it is not the stuff that you can stretch! It is more liquidy (new word there i think!)?? I do seem to have more of it in the run up to OV, in fact if felt as though AF was on the way!!Good luck babybarbarella!!xx

Mrs Cake.... I have asked this question before and the general response is that sometimes you have EWCM but you don't actually know. I am 2dpo I think and didn't seem to have as much as i normally get this month.... I think it varies a lot. Apologies if TMI but I'm also getting more of the watery variety this month,,, agree with you it does feel like AF... I have been on a severe knicker watch over the last few days!!!! x

Ohhhh I know... someone did mention that Pineapple Juice is meant to be good to encourage EWCM but to be honest I am trying to stay as calm (well as calm as you can be) about the whole TTC this time round so haven't bothered with anything. I hate 2ww.... my sanity slowly begins to diminish as the times goes by!!! x

Hi KK155,Don't want to get your hopes up unnecessarily but I saw someone who got there bfp on here recently and she mentioned post ovulation she got a lot of watery cm!The sorry state that I am in was hoping for the same but I am 6/7dpo and have got the stretchy kind. Worried that might cbfm has not indicated correctly when I ovulated...

i have got the same problem. I went on google and it said that you can get pg without ewcm(?) it said that a few tips to increase it are to take evening primrose oil caps from begining of cycle to ovulation or take chesty cough medicine daily until ovulation. Im going to try both this month and see if there is any difference in cm for me and i will let you know if it works or not

Hi please happen,thanks for your reply, sorry to hear of your mc.Really nice to hear that it can happen without the magical ewcm! I am going to try and not worry.Let me know how it goes sammie! I have heard grapefruit juice is good too!Baby dust to us all, ewcm or not! Xx
